Agenda

2019-10-15/16

“Applicability provides the mechanism to identify the context for which a data module or parts of a data module is valid. This context is usually associated with the physical configuration of the Product but can include other aspects such as tool availability and environmental conditions. Applicability capabilities can vary greatly, from a simple annotation placed in the content of a data module to managing the life cycle of applicability which includes product definition, applicability authoring and product instance configuration tracking. This chapter provides an overview of applicability capabilities and the mechanisms for managing applicability.”

Decide whether to specify the allowablevalues for a product attribute achieved byusing both the attribute valuePattern and the element <enumeration> or to allow open text without using the attribute Value Pattern and the element <enumeration>.

BRDP-S1-00321Decide whether to use the element <displayName>.

BRDP-S1-00322Decide whether to use a single element <enumeration> containing the entire set or to use multiple elements<enumeration> where each contains only one value or range.

BRDP-S1-00324Decide whether to use a single element <enumeration> containing the entire set or to use multiple elements <enumeration> which each contain only one value or range.

BRDP-S1-00325Decide whether to use the element<displayName>.

BRDP-S1-00326Decide whether to constrain allowable conditions based on other condition values by use of the element <dependency>.

BRDP-S1-00327Decide which product attributes and conditions to include in the PCT. Conditions that represent operational or environmental properties will usually notbe included in the PCT as they are not associated with a product instance.

In civil / commercial scenarios customers are, in general, allowed to see all applicabilities, respectively product variant publications.

IETP/PDF: Governmental / Military Use

In military scenarios only specific publications applicable to the customers are to be delivered.

ACT, PCT, CCT areintended for data

exchange , respectively supplier integration.

They define the framework for the use of applicability in data

modules.

ACT PCT CCT

Print/PDF only has limited applicability

functionality. For IETP it must be decided how
